Found an old molded plastic toolbox behind the house the other day, and of course, no keys for the locks. I've looked a few times to try and find replacements, with no luck. The toolbox seems to have no brand, the only wording on it is "WorkBox" on the top of each "door". The lock assembly has a patent number of 5226302 - Info here. The lock face itself has L75 stamped on it. I've attached a couple pictures of what the lock assembly looks like. I did find a push button lock set, however when I look over the assembly I have, there doesn't appear to be any way to take it apart. Does anyone know where to get new lock assemblies (the whole thing, as I have pictured below), or what the brand name of the box might be? Thanks!

Did you ever find a replacement for this lock? If so, where?

I did not. I ended up buying a fullsize truck with another toolbox (that had keys). I have seen a few of these boxes on Craigslist; I recommend looking there to possibly pick up a box with keys on there if you are looking.
